[QUOTE="WMF, post: 2450656, member: 549752"] Hi there. I just joined diabetes.co.uk. I can relate to your question as I was going to ask something similar! I’m female 30s and I have not been diagnosed with diabetes but am concerned about my blood sugar. Ever since having glucose in urinalysis at the drs. I got a blood glucose monitor and periodically check. My last HbA1c was in July and was 35. The year before 32 (was eating low carb high healthy fat for health). Dr wasn’t bothered. I need to gain healthy weight as I struggle to gain weight. If I eat a portion of carbs (approx. 30g) at a meal, 2 hours after blood glucose is over 7.8 mmol.l. I would also end up with glucose in urinalysis. I am an advocate for a low carb lifestyle and have been following the low carb movement for a few years. I have a health education background and understanding of the science. But I’m still concerned. I am a low weight and need to gain healthy weight. I obviously don’t handle a carb load well. I feel fatigued after carbs too. We all have a personal carb threshold (ref. Dr Eric Westman). Might be you need to figure your personal carb threshold to keep staying healthy? And periodically check your blood glucose an hour or two after meals to see if it spikes too much? [/QUOTE]
